Faithful Journey To A Healthier You

Day 17: Ramblings Not much going on in my brain these days. I feel like I'm in overload mode from all the goings on in the world. First it was COVID-19 stuff and we were all stuck without family & friend interaction. Then, as things start "opening" the next big American topic hits the country hard, the death of George Floyd. The injustice of what happened triggers protests on police brutality and riots with looting, lots of prayer sessions and personal reflection.

So, I was seriously expecting that I would have officially made it to the 10 lb weight loss mark for the month of May. I'm all smiles as I walk into the bathroom, go about my business, cause every ounce counts...step on the scale...and $&%@! I'm UP!!! Not just up like a few ounces...like POUNDS!!!  How could I possibly be up from the previous week...
